Trying to change $AGENT.TIMEOUT in Zabbix agent

[physikerman]

Trying to change this trigger:

"Zabbix agent is not available (for {$AGENT.TIMEOUT})"

so that instead of

"Zabbix agent is not available (for 3m)"

it says

"Zabbix agent is not available (for 5m)"


Does anyone know where I can change this $AGENT.TIMEOUT variable?

Yes, they are called user macros so there is the documentation: https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...os/user_macros

Sorry to necropost, but on the link provided (or any previous versions of Z thereof) does not mention {$AGENT.TIMEOUT} at all.

One would be tempted to think that the agent timeout comes from the agent config file, but config file mentions SECONDS, not minutes:

```
### Option: Timeout
# Spend no more than Timeout seconds on processing
#
# Mandatory: no
# Range: 1-30
# Default:
Timeout=3
```

So where does the {$AGENT.TIMEOUT} really come from?

As mentioned, it is a user macro, not an agent configuration directive.

Look at the Macros tab in the template and/or in the host that uses the template.

Ohhhh, now I get what you mean! Sorry I didn't get it on the first time. Thanks a lot for the clarification! It's much appreciated Markku!
